The Seven Seeds of Meaningful Work

I loved this quote
being profitable doesn't have to mean strip-mining the souls of the people who actually do the work

This is a review of a book which I think I will have to look out for. It describes an approach to work where the work
• provides something of value, that we all need
• is in harmony with natural systems
• offers a tangible learning environment
• is locally based, encouraging the co-operation of good neighbours
• contributes to the good health of society and surrounding ecosystems
I'm currently thinking of applying for a post which would be a kind of mission to a city center commercial district, this book looks to be a potential tool.
